Commander Yuan Li was indeed killed by Xuantian Guan Lu Wan!
This news is shocking.
But the next moment, Lu Wan was seen beheading Yang Lu, the deputy commander of Zuoying.
But the visitor from Zhenyang Prince's Mansion only remained silent for a moment before saying yes.
Since then, Lu Wan, a true disciple of Xuantian Temple, has temporarily assumed the position of commander of the Seventh Mountain.
The person who killed the previous commander-in-chief became the next commander-in-chief.
Moreover, this person is a disciple of the sect, he is white, and he is not a royal general, which is even more shocking.
However, Lu Wan was so powerful that he used his momentum to kill Yang Lu, the deputy commander of Zuoying, which made all the soldiers feel heavy.
Previously, the young white-robed general from Zhenyang Palace mentioned that Lu Wan not only killed Commander Yuan Li, but also killed two great cauldron-making monsters and more than a thousand monsters from the southern mountains.
The strength of his abilities was unimaginable to everyone present.
Moreover, Zhenyang Prince’s Mansion has determined this matter!
Commander Yuan Li is a traitor!
Xuantian watched Lu Wan and made outstanding military exploits!
Although everyone's hearts were inevitably complicated and even unacceptable for a moment, they fell silent at this moment.
But among the many eyes looking at Lu Wan, there were still various emotions.
"Maybe in the past, Commander Yuan Li had a very high reputation and had a good status in everyone's hearts."
Lu Wan spoke slowly and said: "But it is a definite fact that he colluded with the monsters in the southern mountains, set off a tide of beasts, and harmed our border soldiers. You may not believe me, but do you still believe in the Prince of Zhenyang?"
He said this and then said: "I don't care what you think in your heart, commander, but since you are a soldier of the Seventh Mountain, you must obey the orders and prohibitions, and the military orders are as high as the mountain. If you disobey, Yang Lu will be punished!"
His eyes were calm and he said calmly: "Generals from all sides, please comfort your subordinates. If anyone disobeys the order, behead him first!"
He turned around and left another message.
"Do your best to defend yourself tonight and come back to the big tent to discuss matters. Those who are absent are for disobeying military orders and will be executed!"
——
The white-robed young man followed Lu Wan.
He looks like a young man and looks immature, but he has strong energy and blood and a lot of cultivation. In fact, he should be in his thirties.
"At the peak of the Taoist foundation, the eight Taoist platforms are combined and should belong to the third-grade Taoist foundation!"
The voice of the Fourth Patriarch came and said: "He has built five high-level Taoist platforms and three medium-level Taoist platforms."
Hearing this, Lu Wan understood the identity of the other party.
Li Wei, a fourth-grade general in the Daqian Dynasty.
This person has a good reputation because he comes from a low-class sect but is extremely talented.
Using the method passed down by the sect, the lower Dantian Taoist platform, the middle Dantian Taoist platform, and the Jinling Taoist platform were refined.
The method passed down by his sect is cast on the Taoist platform, which belongs to the middle level.
When he first became a Taoist, he became a member of the frontier army of the Daqian Dynasty.
In the first battle ten years ago, he repeatedly made military exploits and gained a good reputation.
Moreover, after King Zhenyang defeated the Demon King of the God Refining Realm, he fell into a tide of beasts when he was exhausted.
The prince's personal soldiers rushed into the beast tide to protect the prince's return.
Li Wei was the first one to break into the beast tide, and under the cover of the royal soldiers, he carried King Zhenyang behind him.
He carried one person on his back and passed through the beast tide for eighty miles before returning to the border of Daqian.
After that, he became the adopted son of Prince Zhenyang!
"The first three Taoist platforms were refined using his sect's methods."
"The last five Taoist platforms have changed the casting method of the superior Taoist platforms of Prince Zhenyang."
"Therefore, his Taoist platform is consistent, and his Taoist base can enter the third level!"
Lu Wan's heart suddenly became clear, and he thought to himself: "The third-grade Taoist foundation is enough to build a cauldron, and he has the hope of refining the gods. This person has great potential..."
It is said that the eight Taoist platforms are all high-grade Taoist platforms. When combined into one, they are the first-grade Taoist platform.
A first-grade Daoji has extremely high potential!
Needless to say, it goes without saying that casting a tripod, even if you are in the realm of refining the gods, it is not difficult if you don't die young!
But there are some people who have different levels of Taoist platforms. Although they can be combined into Taoist bases in the end, the quality of the Taoist bases is also very different.
The most famous among them is the god-refining figure known as Prince Xiaoyao, the brother of His Majesty the Emperor in the current city of gods.
When this prince was still a prince, he was favored by the late emperor. Unfortunately, he was born with a weak body and a dissolute temperament. After completing the Qi refining process, he was unable to build a high-grade Taoist platform.
In the end, the lower Dantian Taoist platform was built using the method of the middle Taoist platform.
For this reason, he consciously broke through the Daoji realm and was very proud of himself. However, he was angrily rebuked by the late emperor and lost his favor from then on.
As for Prince Xiaoyao, the subsequent Middle Dantian Taoist platform and later the Upper Dantian Taoist platform were all cast using middle-grade techniques.
Only the Five Elements Taoist Platform, with his royal background and collecting treasures from the world, actually allowed him to build a superior Taoist platform.
The three medium-level Taoist platforms and the five high-level Taoist platforms were originally supposed to be merged into one and promoted to the third-level Taoist platform.
But he still failed, and finally settled for the second best, and created a fourth-grade Taoist foundation.
As for the fourth-grade Taoist foundation, there is hope for building a cauldron, but there is little hope for refining the gods.
Everyone thought that his potential had been exhausted, but he was finally able to refine himself as a god... Of course, in the realm of refining gods, his background was relatively shallow.
"This Li Wei has a third-grade Taoist foundation. It will not be difficult to build a cauldron in the future, and it may not be hopeless to refine a god."
Lu Wan thought like this and couldn't help but think of Chu Zhou.
This young general also came from an ordinary sect, and his Taoist teachings were all middle-grade. However, when he came to the frontier army, he made outstanding military achievements and was not afraid of death.
Now it seems that Chu Zhou inevitably has the idea of imitating Li Wei and seeking ways to build superior Taoist platforms to refine gods in the future.
"Those who are below the third-grade Taoist foundation can often only barely cast a cauldron, and there are very few who can refine gods."
The fourth ancestor, Taoist Lord Yanfa, said slowly: "Below the sixth-grade Taoist foundation, it is difficult to even cast a cauldron... often the moment you try to cast a cauldron, the Taoist foundation is broken."
"What about the third-grade Daoji?"
Lu Wan couldn't help but asked curiously.
The Fourth Ancestor said: "I have seen a few low-level Taoists. Their potential has been exhausted. Although they are already at the peak of the Taoist realm, in terms of combat power... you can kill them when you first become a Taoist!"
Such a person at the peak of the Daoji realm is much worse than the head of the Zhao family in Jinling.
"As for the ninth-grade Taoist foundation, legend has it that...the eight lower-grade Taoist platforms merge into one, which is the ninth-grade Taoist foundation."
Grandma Sanzu spoke, saying this, and then said: "But I haven't seen it."
The Fourth Patriarch responded: "I haven't seen it either. I've only seen records in ancient books."
Being able to build eight Taoist platforms, logically speaking, proves that the person's own foundation is not bad, so he can build the three major Dantian Taoist platforms.
And the force this person belongs to should not be bad, otherwise it would be difficult to collect all the spiritual objects in the Five Elements Taoist Platform.
"Those who can build eight Taoist platforms are basically not too bad, and generally not all of them are inferior Taoist platforms."
The Fourth Patriarch said slowly: "Since it's not too bad, it shouldn't be difficult to find some similar 'medium-level Taoist platform casting methods' when you reach the middle and upper levels of the Daoji realm... So, here are eight low-level Taoist platforms. It is indeed rare to create the most inferior ninth-grade Taoist foundation."
After a pause, the Fourth Patriarch continued: "More importantly, how inferior and rough are the eight low-grade Taoist platforms? They simply do not have the qualifications to be able to match and achieve the Taoist foundation... There is only one result for forcing a breakthrough!"
Those are eight inferior Taoist platforms, all shattered, and the body dies and the Tao disappears.
Following Lu Wan and the two Patriarchs, who were at the peak level of the Daoji Realm, and with a lot of discussion, they arrived at the big tent.
The white-robed young man was right behind him without saying a word.
He is the adopted son of King Zhenyang, a peak figure in the Daoji realm, and a fifth-rank general in the imperial court.
But Lu Wan didn't speak, so he didn't dare to speak.
Although Lu Wan is a young man, this true successor of Xuantian Temple is already considered a strong man at the level of casting the cauldron!
So he had no choice but to remain silent.
"With my status, even if he doesn't pay too much attention to courtesy, he won't be so cold."
Li Wei thought to himself: "Are you trying to give me a warning?"
After entering the big tent, Lu Wan sat on top and raised his hand.
Li Wei saw this and sat on the edge.
"Young Master Li is here today, presumably not just to ask me to temporarily act as the commander-in-chief?"
Lu Wan smiled and said this.
Li Wei looked solemn and said: "As the commander of the Seventh Mountain, I should be granted military power, armor, magical weapons, military formations and other necessary things."
He held something in his hands and said: "This is the tiger talisman in the army. With it, you can mobilize the soldiers of the Seventh Mountain and gather the momentum of the army."
Then he took another booklet and said: "There are three large formations here, one for offense and two for defense! In addition, there are thirty-two medium formations and one hundred and twenty small formations!"
"The military formation gathers momentum, converges on itself, and strengthens its abilities!"
Lu Wan said with emotion: "Although Yuan Li has not completed the cauldron, if he mobilizes the entire seventh army to form a large formation, he can barely resist the first stage of refining the gods...at least he will not be defeated immediately."
Perhaps Yuan Li felt quite regretful in the end.
The greatest ability comes from the more than ten thousand soldiers of the Seventh Mountain.
But in the battle in the southern mountains, Yuan Li was just a practitioner of the tripod-making level, not a general who controlled more than ten thousand elite border troops.
But now, Lu Wan is the general in charge of more than ten thousand elite border troops.
If he didn't borrow the divine flower, he should be able to kill Zhuding easily with this large formation.
"As for the armor, it originally belonged to Yuan Li. It is inevitable that there are traces of him and it does not fit well with outsiders. Therefore, Li Wei came here today to ask for the size from Venerable Lu... Commander Lu."
Li Wei said: "The palace will build high-quality magic weapons and armor as soon as possible and send them to the Seventh Mountain."
After a pause, Li Wei added: "In addition, you can also create a superior killing weapon."
"Well……"
Lu Wan thought for a while and said: "I know that the position of commander is temporary. Afterwards, the military symbols, military formations, and positions must be returned to the court! I just don't know that this armor and magic weapon are customized for me. make……"
"Commander Lu, you can take him away."
Li Wei said: "If you step down from office in the future, you can take away the magic weapons and armor used on the battlefield and leave them as a souvenir. This will also be recognized by the imperial court!"
"That's good. I'll take your measurements. Do you want to take off your clothes?"
"That's not necessary."
"Then my magic weapon...can I choose the style? I don't like to use a halberd..."
"It's up to you to choose. The prince has probably already started preparing the materials to refine a high-quality magical sword for Commander Lu."
"I don't want a sword."
"Huh?" Li Wei was startled for a moment, thinking to himself that this true disciple of Xuantian Temple was famous for his mastery of swordsmanship.
"Just change it to an axe."
Lu Wan said this and used his true energy to draw the shape of a giant axe.
On the end of the ax blade, you can vaguely see the word "virtue"!
This is for the white ape!
This guy has grown up too fast recently and has become a big fool, acting quite recklessly.
Lu Wan hopes to use this word "virtue" to make him understand the truth of persuading others with virtue!
As for himself, holding the Dust-breaking Sword is enough for now.
The Duan Chen Sword is almost beyond the limit of the best magical weapon.
This is a sword that even great practitioners in the realm of refining the gods will take a high look at.
——
After Lu Wan finished measuring and confirmed the style of the high-quality magic weapon, he saw Li Wei salute.
"That's it, I'll take my leave."
Li Wei raised his head and said solemnly: "The Seventh Mountain City, more than ten thousand elite border troops, and hundreds of thousands of people are all entrusted to the commander-in-chief of the mainland!"
He said seriously: "I hope the commander-in-chief of the mainland can stick to it!"
After he finished speaking, he turned and left.
Lu Wan looked at his back, was silent for a moment, and then whispered: "What he wants me to hold on to is not only this city, but also the position of the commander."
The delusion-breaking magical power allows him to keenly detect clues around him, including the fluctuations in people's hearts.
"Yuan Li is the commander-in-chief of the Seventh Mountain appointed by the Prince of Zhenyang. He was infected by demonic nature and collaborated with the enemy and treason. The Prince's Palace cannot escape his involvement."
Grandma Sanzu has always had a lot of experience in analyzing the situation of all parties: "Si Tianjian obviously wants to intervene in the southern part of the country. This is an opportunity... The Prince of Zhenyang is probably aware of the crisis. This time at least Let us throw away the military power of two mountains, otherwise it will be difficult to stabilize."
After a pause, Grandma Third Grandma continued: "Leave the Seventh Mountain to me, Xuantian Temple, and it should be stable."
Now that the Seventh Mountain is handed over to Xuantian Guan, if Si Tianjian is still concerned about the Seventh Mountain, he will not only be "fighting" with the Zhenyang Palace, but will also completely push Xuantian Guan into the palace's faction.
So the seventh mountain won't be a problem.
But other lines of defense are afraid that something will happen.
——
At the same time, the first mountain city welcomed uninvited guests.
"Si Tianjian, Zhongguan Zheng, Zhou Ye!"
The person who came had a white face and no beard, and looked like a middle-aged man. He seemed to be gentle. He saluted and said, "I have met the prince."
King Zhenyang looked at the other party and said with emotion: "Mr. Zhou came so quickly, I'm afraid he didn't come from the capital of God?"
"Recently, the disciple of the Imperial Master has traveled all over Daqian and is hiding somewhere. It's just a coincidence that Zhou came to look for him. When he saw this, he took advantage of the situation and came to the First Mountain City to convey the wishes of the Shendu."
When Zhou Ye said this, his face became even more apologetic and guilty.
King Zhenyang had no expression on his face.
Soon he saw Zhou Ye and took out something from his arms.
The light flashed and condensed into words.
There was a voice inside, majestic and deep.
"Prince Zhenyang's Mansion is ordered to guard the eight major regions in the south, together with the twenty-four mountain defense lines in the south."
"For many years, in the southern territory of the Daqian Dynasty, the safety of the country and the survival of the people have depended on the decision-making of the royal palace."
"Now the soldiers under the royal palace are actually infected with demonic nature, collaborating with the enemy and treason, attracting a tide of beasts, and ruining all my passionate soldiers!"
"I have specially ordered the Lieutenant Commander of the Sitian Prison, Zheng Zhouye, to serve as an imperial envoy to monitor the twenty-four mountain defense lines until the danger of the beast tide is completely eliminated!"
This is the voice of the Emperor Daqian in the current divine capital.
This is not a formal decree, but it is the emperor's intention.
"Your Majesty is tolerant and did not want to publicize this matter, so he did not draft an edict, but the prince should understand."
Zhou Ye sighed and said, "If such a big thing happened, what crime should the palace be responsible for?"
King Zhenyang still did not speak and looked at the other party quietly.
Zhou Ye continued: "Your Majesty is furious. He believes that the palace has neglected its jurisdiction over the southern mountain defense line, causing the general to be possessed by demonic nature and has lost complete control over the twenty-four mountain defense line."
"After discussions with our Tianjian, all the original commanders of the Twenty-Four Mountain Defense Line have been temporarily removed!"
He looked at King Zhenyang and said in a deep voice: "Starting today, we will redefine the position of commander."
"Furthermore, the new commander must not be any of the soldiers who were originally in the Twenty-Four Mountains, because they are all suspected of being infected by demonic nature."
"As for the new generals who have just arrived, it is difficult to convince the crowd. Their own cultivation level must not be lower than the Dingding Dacheng!"
"Only by successfully casting the cauldron can we guard the army and quell the hidden dangers!"
After Zhou Ye said this, he sighed and said: "This is what the higher-ups meant. Zhou is helpless, but he also knows that the prince is worried at the moment, so he will give Zhou an explanation before sunset."
After saying this, he turned and left.
——
After a while, the old man from Zhenyang Prince's Mansion, known as Granny Feng, slowly walked out.
"It's basically the same as what my mother-in-law expected." King Zhenyang sighed and turned his head to look over.
"..."
Granny Feng nodded slightly and was not surprised. She just muttered: "Prince Zhenyang's Mansion, after removing the commanders of these twenty-four mountains, can barely summon twenty-four forging cauldrons!"
"But they expected this step, and what they want is the success of the cauldron!"
"Actually, if you look at it in detail, it makes sense. Most of the soldiers in the army kill the enemy in battle. They are hot-blooded and frivolous people. They are not docile lambs."
"If you make an ordinary cauldron, you may not be able to defend it. At least if you make a great cauldron, you can suppress the morale of the army."
"But Zhenyang Prince's Mansion can't produce twenty-four people who are successful in making the tripod."
Granny Feng thought for a while and said, "I have done some calculations now, and there are only about thirteen people."
Thirteen direct descendants of the royal family who have successfully made the tripod.
That is to say, thirteen mountains can be saved.
Eleven of the twenty-four mountain defense lines need to be handed over?
"Si Tianjian will take the opportunity to gather military morale and plant their seeds among the southern frontier troops of Daqian."
"If you hand over your military power today, you may not be able to take it back in the future."
"If His Majesty doesn't issue a new decree after the beast wave, it will probably remain as it is."
"And His Majesty obviously also intends to use Si Tianjian to check and balance the palace."
Granny Feng thought for a while and said, "Four of the mountains should be handed over to the Chengming Tianshi Mansion..."
King Zhenyang nodded, he knew what Granny Feng meant.
The Taoists of Chengming Tianshi Mansion will definitely leave after the danger of the beast tide is over and the matter of the demon species is settled.
Even if the imperial court intends to keep them, it cannot.
Therefore, the military power of these four mountains can be returned to the hands of the palace.
In fact, he handed over the military power of the Seventh Mountain to Xuantian Guan Lu Wan for a similar reason.
"The other god-refining forces will each control another mountain. The prince can also guard the first mountain here. There will be no general commander for the time being, and you will act in person."
Granny Feng said: "These forces will not be stationed on the southern defense line for a long time. They will withdraw when the crisis is over. At that time, we can take back our military power."
This will have completely different results than leaving it to Si Tianjian.
"That's still not enough."
King Zhenyang said in a low voice.
Granny Feng shook her head slightly and said: "The rest will be given to Si Tianjian. They have made such a big move and brought the matter to His Majesty's desk. If there is no benefit, they will never give up... Give them two seats It’s at the top of the mountain.”
After saying this, she added: "But these two mountains must be separated. They cannot be gathered together and there must be no opportunity for communication."
"On both sides, my royal family's confidants must be guarding them, monitoring their every move."
"Let's hand over the Eighth Mountain first."
Granny Feng said slowly: "In this way, Si Tianjian will suspect that the Xuantian Temple in the Seventh Mountain has completely surrendered to my Zhenyang Palace! There is one more existence at the peak of the God Refining Realm, and I can borrow the Xuantian Palm The prestige of teaching is not a bad thing..."
After a pause, Granny Feng continued: "But afterwards, you must be generous! Otherwise, the old prince's favor will become increasingly thin..."
